  1. Mathews v. Greiner

    204 S.E.2d 749 (Ga. Ct. App. 1974)   Cited 17 times
    In Mathews v. Greiner, 130 Ga. App. 817, 204 S.E.2d 749 (1974), the court pronounced Trustees of Williams Hospital v. Nisbet, 189 Ga. 807, 7 S.E.2d 737 (1940) as the "leading Georgia case explanatory of the law of lex loci contractus" and adopted its rule: "Where a pleaded contract not only is executed in a foreign State, but contains nothing to indicate by the place of performance or otherwise that it was intended to be construed as a Georgia contract, it will be treated as a contract of the foreign State, and governed by its laws."

    This legislation contained in 1973 Ga. Laws from page 100 through page 126 struck all of Code Ch. 84-14 and substituted a new Chapter with a complete change in the numbering of Code sections. Our court has heretofore in Dixon v. Rollins, 120 Ga. App. 557 ( 171 S.E.2d 646) and Beets v. Padgett, 123 Ga. App. 68 ( 179 S.E.2d 560) expressly ruled that a broker doing business in Georgia without the required license had no standing to sue. Furthermore, this taint of illegality would also apply to quantum meruit.
